WINKER WATSON (GB) (K Fallon) was late to post when part of its gear broke in the parade ring and then had to be replaced. WINKER WATSON (GB) was hard to load. Trainer Mr M Channon was advised that WINKER WATSON (GB) would be required to complete a satisfactory stalls test prior to being entered to race again. ROCK JOCK (IRE) (P Shanahan) stood flat footed as the gates opened and refused to race. Trainer Mr E Charpy was advised that ROCK JOCK (IRE) would be required to complete a satisfactory stalls test prior to being entered to race again. SIR REGINALD (GB) (P Hanagan) jumped inwards at the start, crowding WINKER WATSON (GB) in onto FORJATT (IRE) (J Doyle). BOHEMIAN MELODY (GB) (W Buick) and INTERNATIONALDEBUT (IRE) (F Tylicki) bumped on jumping and BOHEMIAN MELODY (GB) then commenced to race keenly and drifted outwards away from INTERNATIONALDEBUT (IRE), which had drifted outwards away from ADDICTIVE DREAM (IRE) (A Nicholls), which was shifting outwards. This movement crowded THE REAPER (IRE) (R Moore), which had to be eased. A short distance later, SIR REGINALD (GB) commenced to race very strongly and ran inwards abruptly crowding GREEN BERET (IRE) (R Ffrench) inwards onto BOHEMIAN MELODY (GB), which was restrained. Leaving the 450m, BOHEMIAN MELODY (GB) was disappointed for a run between GREEN BERET (IRE) and SIR REGINALD (GB) and passing the 400m was angled to the outside of GREEN BERET (IRE) to obtain clear running. Jockey W Buick was questioned regarding his ride on BOHEMIAN MELODY (GB), specifically his level of vigour over the concluding stages. In considering this matter, the Stewards accepted Jockey W Buick’s explanation that BOHEMIAN MELODY (GB) had peaked on his run a short distance from the line, and deemed that his failure to ride to the line had not cost the gelding 4th placing.

MABROOR (USA) (R Hills) was disappointed for a run in the early parts of the straight to the inside of and behind BIBLE BLACK (IRE), and approaching the 250m, MABROOR (USA) shifted outwards inconveniencing THAT S PLENTY (IRE). Approaching the 150m, PREPARED (GB) improved to the inside of MICKDAAM (IRE) (C Soumillon), which shifted ground inwards.
